Toadcast #214 – Kid Canaveral Toad Session

I am rather embarrassed to confess that we recorded this session absolutely bloody ages ago.  First the Festival, then the mixes, then intervening sessions, and finally just the sheer amount of time these take to edit managed to delay things.  But now, finally, at long, long last here it is: the Kid Canaveral Toad Session.

This was another relatively messy, drunken one I’m afraid.  We were nice though – we made them dinner and supplied them with a beverage or several, and it happened to be a nice day too, so we were even able to sit out in the garden for a bit.

The team this time around consisted of Neil from Meursault, who recorded the session (and I hope I’ve not offended him with my mixes!), Fiona and Dylan who took the photos, and Dylan also did a lot of the video work as well.  And cooked. Whereas I just sat around, drank beer and swore at people mostly.

    I like Sleeper, but I love Kid Canaveral. This looks and sounds great too.

    I am not being at all sarcastic when I say that Rose will be so proud that this post has been turned into a Sleeper appreciation thread.

    I too love Sleeper! Even the third album had some great bits.
